The Effects of MentatExhaustion

Many diseases, especially those of the nervous system, are the products of daily renewed mental exhaustion. Business avo- cations often involve an amount of mental wear and tear very prejudicial to physical health, and the professions if arduously pursued, are no less destructive to brain and nerve tissue. It is one of the most i'm portant attributes of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, that it compensates for this undue loss of tissue, and that it imparts new ener- gy to the brain and nerves. The rapidity with which it renews weakened mental energy and physical vitality is remarkable, and shows that it's invigorating properties are of the highest order. Besides increas- ing vital stamina, and counteracting the effects of mental exhaustion, this potential medicine cures and prevents fever and sgue rheumatism, chronic dyspepsia and consti- patton, kidney and uterine weakness and other complaints. Physicians also recom- mend it as medicated stimulant and rem edy.
